Atlassian expands Jira roadmaps for better project status visibility
Atlassian has expanded the roadmapping functions in Jira Software in a bid to offer users greater insight into the progress of their software development projects.
The update comes a year after Atlassian introduced its “next-gen” Jira Software, with roadmaps as one of the key new features.
Roadmaps can provide a high-level view of tasks under way, show how that work relates to specific items in each project, and can be shared with a range of stakeholders, including executives and and cross-functional partners, according to Atlassian.
The company said the feature was an immediate hit: 45% of Jira Software customers were accessing roadmaps within a month and active use is now above 50%.
